Yuan Shanchuan’s eyes started to heat up. When he came back, the old lady had slapped him with her hand, and she was very regretful. However, his parents seemed to want to beat him to death.
Taking a deep breath, he smiled at the old lady and said, “I’m fine. The doctor said that I’ll be able to jump around again after resting for two days.”
“That’s good, that’s good.” The old lady was relieved and looked at Lu Sixing at the side.
Although she had only seen her two days ago, she still felt that she had lost weight.
They had prepared wormwood at home. Since Yuan Shanchuan was not feeling well, the old lady took it and swept it over them. She asked them to step over the brazier and enter the house.
She stood at the door and said, “Have a good rest. It’s getting late, You’ll stay here for the night. Let’s eat something good tonight and celebrate your safe return. ”
“Thank you, mother-in-law.”
The old lady went out. Madam Ruan walked to Lu Sixings side and patted her.” Fourth Sister, you should rest here for a while. When the water is boiling, go take a shower first. You must not have rested well these past few days. Now that you’re home, you should rest well.”
“Second Sister-in-law, sorry to trouble you.”
“What’s the trouble? Seeing that you’re all fine, your second brother and I are relieved.” As she spoke, Madam Ruan handed her the Quanquan. “He just drank the goat’s milk and is very excited. I’ll go help Mother in the kitchen.”
After Madam Ruan finished speaking, she went out. Lu Sixing held her son in her arms and looked down at the little guy dancing happily. She was instantly satisfied.
She beckoned Xiaozhen over. The family of four huddled together and laughed together.
Now, the rain was finally over.
There were only a few of them left in the room. Shu Yu went to the kitchen to tell the old lady about the general situation. She knew what she should say and what she should not say.
Knowing that everything was over, the old lady heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, she chased Shu Yu out. “Alright, you should go and rest for a while.
You’ve been busy all day. Look at your little face. You look haggard.” Not really, right?
Shu Yu touched her face and felt that the old lady was exaggerating.
However, she still went out of the kitchen and saw Daniu helping to clean up the brazier. When she thought of the fifty taels (monetary) of silver that Xiang Weinan had given her, her eyes lit up.
She walked to Daniu’s side. “Brother Daniu, take a rest first. I have something to tell you.”
Daniu placed the brazier aside and was about to go chop wood.
He had a personality that could not be stopped. His eyes were alive. Wherever he saw that he was needed, he would go.
It was already a little late. When he brought Fourth Aunt and the others back, the city gates were closed. Daniu could not go out, so he decided to stay in the county town today.
Fortunately, the Third Uncle had already rented a house, and the old lady asked him to stay at the Third Uncle’s house later.
Lu Sanzhu had always been freeloading and taking advantage of others. This was the first time he had been freeloaded by someone. It was very rare.
Seeing Shu Yu come over, Daniu stopped what he was doing and asked her,
“What’s the matter? Tell me.’
Shu Yu pulled him to a corner of the courtyard and said in a low voice,
“Weren’t you worried that the private room in the black market cost 30 taels
(monetary) of silver? Lord Xiang has already given me that silver.” Daniu was overjoyed. “Really? Did Lord Xiang give it to you?”
“Yes, not only did he give me thirty taels (monetary), but he also gave me another surprise.” Shu Yu said with a smile..
